The airport is approximately 11.5km from the town of Béziers, and is also nearby to Bessan, Florensac, Marsillan and Sauvian. Larger cities in the vicinity include Montpellier to the northeast and Narbonne and Carcassonne to the south west. The airport was formerly know as the Béziers-Vias Airport, but is now the Béziers Cap d’Agde Airport, with the official code of BZR. A variety of car hire companies are available for arriving passengers, including Avis Béziers Airport, and Avis is a popular choice for their low rental rates and vehicles of high quality.

At the airport, passengers will find a single terminal building, which is quite small in comparison to many other France airports, as only 130,000 passengers were handled at this airport in 2010. Ryanair mainly offers to and from Béziers Airport flights, to destinations that include Paris, London, Southampton, Bristol, Oslo and Stockholm. There are two main areas within the airport, one for departures and the other for arrivals, and within the arrival area, the rental offices of the Béziers Airport car hire companies can be found.

Customers collecting their vehicle from Avis will need to show a valid drivers license, and all drivers listed on the rental agreement should be present, in person, for the collection. A driver’s license must have been held by the person concerned for at least a year in his/her country of residence, prior to the rental date, and will be accepted if printed in English. If in a non-Roman alphabet, an International Driving Permit may be required. In order to hire a car, the primary renter, and all additional drivers, must meet the minimum age requirement of 21, however, persons under the age of 25 will pay young driver fees, which is an amount added to each day of car hire, for each underage driver on the rental contract, up until a maximum of ten rental days. Younger drivers may also not be permitted to hire from certain vehicle categories, as a minimum age of 25 is required for the following car groups:  E (Fullsize), F (Standard), G (Convertible), M, N and O (Vans).

For a rented car from one of the Béziers Airport car rental companies, additional equipment can be reserved, such as child safety seats and a satellite navigation system. Avis hand controls for disabled drivers may also be available, and are useful for individuals with a lower limb disability. Although all items mentioned will cost a few extra Euro per day of hire, and are not included in any rental quotes, from Béziers Airport, hand controls are free of charge, as well as other services offered to disabled customers and drivers, which include a free additional driver for a primary renter who is unable to drive due to disability.

Avis’ vehicles are arranged into various car groups, and all cars are permitted to travel outside of France, and to most other European countries. However, vehicles may not enter the following areas:  Greece, Turkey, Eastern Europe, Commonwealth of Independent States and Baltic States. The islands of Corsica and Sardinia may be travelled, as well as the United Kingdom, provided that the vehicle is returned to a location on the mainland. Avis one way hires are available for renters who are perhaps travelling more extensively, and who will not be returning to Béziers Airport. One way hires enable the customer to return the car to a different rental location, free of charge if within the country of France, and a little more expensive if delivered to another country.
